This instrument came from our recently acquired "Kalamazoo Collection." We acquired the collection from a married couple that worked at the original factory from the late 50s until the factory closed in June of 1984. These pieces are uncirculated and mostly untouched in mint or near-mint condition ~ The collection also includes 1000s of pieces of memorabilia, new-old-stock parts, and more ~ reach out with any/all inquiries!

1982 Gibson F-5L "The Gibson Master Model" serial #81531001 Rick Brown Signed. New old stock condition with checking, a small repaired top crack, and it has a slight patina with some crumbling binding on the treble side edge that does not affect the structural integrity. Set up to play great and it sounds beautiful producing a warm and rich sound with tons of projection. Reach out for more information! Includes original hardshell case.
